Check out top 5 add-ons to Revit which streamline MEP modeling

Many new features and tools have been added in the latest version of Revit for reinforcing mechanical, electrical and plumbing modeling, and all these features are specifically meant to be used by MEP students and desktop Subscription customers. Revit has always been the first and foremost choice of Mechanical, electrical and plumbing modelers when it comes to developing top-tier 3D parametric models.

Construction industry has flourished in multiple ways after the adoption of Revit for developing excellent design for different building trades and for managing essential information for future use.

Top 5 MEP enhancements which are made in Revit 2015

• It’s easy to move circuits now: Earlier when MEP modelers had to move the circuits to another slot, it used to end-up in disturbing other circuits but that can be effectively tackled now with the support of ‘Move to Tool,’ tool. • With the assistance of ‘Move to Tool’ a required circuit can be easily placed directly to a target slot. • It’s very convenient to determine sequence for power circuits: Revit users can make use of Electrical Settings dialog for determining the sequence which is used for developing power circuits. • This helps in simplifying the development of power circuits in Revit.

• Easy to connect with recently used panel circuiting: When circuits are created in Revit, users can automatically connect to those panel circuits which have been used by them recently. • Move commands such as Move Up, Move Down, Move Across and Move To etc can be used by Revit technicians for arranging the circuits.

• Easily identify the table relevant for current condition: When it comes to identifying accurate table which can be used for the current condition, Revit technicians can make use of the ASHRAE Table Settings dialog. This dialog effectively shows graphical representation related to the duct fitting tables. • Improved energy analysis: Carrying out energy analysis has become extremely easy for large models, as different techniques can be used by Revit modelers for curtailing memory use.
